Lakvinder Kahlon, who is on trial in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster charged with first-degree murder in the killing of his daughter Rajvinder at the family home in Delta a year ago, told an undercover cop that he first strangled her and then cut her with a knife.
NEW WESTMINSTER - More horrific details emerged this week about the slaying of a two-year-old Indo-Canadian girl who was allegedly beheaded by her father.
An undercover cop, who can’t be named, testified this week that Lakvinder told him his daughter "was the victim of his frustrations which emerged from constant quarreling with his wife over their financial situation."
Kahlon is on trial in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster, charged with first-degree murder in the killing of his daughter Rajvinder at the family home in Delta a year ago.

When the officer asked Kahlon why he killed the toddler, Kahlon told the officer that he had been suffering from depression and had been up all night debating whether he should kill himself or one of his daughters. He concluded he'd kill one of the girls the next day, instead of himself.
In describing the murder, Kahlon told the cop that he was laying on his sofa with his youngest daughter as she drank a bottle of milk while watching Teletubbies. "At that point he grabbed onto her and choked her to death," said the cop, who added that Kahlon demonstrated the choke by holding his hands like a C-clamp.
Kahlon further told the cop that he'd probably receive a 15- to 20-year prison sentence for the crime and asked if Canada has the electric chair, the officer told the court. "He proceeded to say God would punish him by destroying his hands through leprosy."
Kahlon also told him he'd tried explaining to a psychiatrist that he needed to be admitted to a hospital "but the psychiatrist wouldn't listen." And that he wanted to die by the electric chair or lethal injection, the undercover officer told the court.
The Crown alleges Kahlon tried to strangle his daughter while she was drinking milk and watching TV before he carried her to the kitchen and severed her head with a knife.
The Crown says the evidence includes a 911 call from Kahlon in which he says he killed his daughter. Neighbours have said Kahlon was an out-of-work drywaller who was depressed because he had no sons.
